Day 2 - unranked

"Timesteps" by Wendy Carlos

Dreamlike, groundbreaking, at times industrial sounding, this is the music playing during the scene in A clockwork Orange where the Ludovico technique is being applied

Day 1

(I'm going to meander a bit no ranking)

"Phædra" by Tangerine Dream

Epic and otherworldly soundscape takes you to alien worlds and perhaps lovecraftian settings the middle section wants to test your sanity

Honorable mention

"I'm Cold" by The Cure

B-side to jumping someone else's train, despite this, this song is my favorite to come out of that era of the Cure a precursor to their later style

Day 30 - 1979: 3/3

"Bela Lugosi's Dead" by Bauhaus

An otherworldly genre-defining anthem, the ultimate goth debut and a real Jewel of Post punk, musically experimental, lyrically spooky and haunting.

"Shadowplay" by Joy Division

Musically, a very simple song but so powerful... in terms of music analysis the best musician here is the drummer, but in their simplicity, this hits the soul...

"The Belldog" Eno Mœbius Rœdelius

I realize my selections are very Eno heavy, because for me the '70s was Eno, to a large degree.

"Mass Production" by Iggy Pop

Was on the the turntable when Ian Curtis passed, reportedly... Lurching beat and droning synths, almost dirgelike. Seminal track.

"Sheep" by Pink Floyd

I like how this whole album is a middle finger to the record executives: the songs are either too short or too long for radio airplay, but every one is a banger!

"King's Lead Hat" by Brian Eno

An awesome groove here. Eno has said in interviews that his lyric composition is to sing gibberish until words start to form although there is a sort of story here.
